Ways to get around Calgary

Bus

We have over 1,100 buses operating throughout the city. In addition to our 160 routes, we also offer five BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) routes that average a higher speed and fewer stops.

We offer a variety of fare payment options that give you options to pay the way you want - cash, tickets, day passes, or monthly passes. We also offer senior and low-income passes for eligible Calgarians.

You can plan your trip ahead of time by using our trip planner, or receive information on the fly about a particular route by calling Teleride or Teletext.

CTrain

With 56 kilometres of track and 44 stations on two lines, the CTrain can help connect you to where you want to go.

The Red Line, runs from Crowfoot in the northwest to Somerset-Bridlewood in the south, and the Blue Line, starts at Saddletowne in the northeast and travels to 69 Street in the west.

The CTrain travels downtown along 7 Avenue between City Hall and West/Kerby Stations. This stretch of the CTrain system is our free fare zone. This means that you can hop on for free when traveling along 7 Avenue. Make sure you purchase your fare if you’re traveling outside of downtown.
